Motown,
How did the weather hold out for that show? I was going to go but I felt there may of been some rain over that way.
I really like that Nova! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif[/img]

Maxx,
The morning was party cloudy and the humidity was thick, the afternoon let go with one 15 minute downpour, 15 minutes later it cleared up for the rest of the day. I felt bad for the guys who had all the top flight open classics from the 20's and 30's, it's not like they could just roll up their windows. Everybody had a cover for those cars. It certainly didnt dampen the show in the aspect of attendence, the place was packed, before and after the rain. The automakers had a lot of really neat concept cars, from the thirties to present. Jim Mattison and Al Maynard are two of the organizers for the event, they and everyone else invlolved did a fantastic job as it was well organized and went off without a hitch. The show set a record for the most Duesenburgs ever in attendence at one event, they came from around the world to put 34 fine examples in one place at the same time. I have about 60 more photos from all the classes including the concept cars, if anyone is interested just let me know.
Thanks,
Motown [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

Ahh, I see that Brett (Payne) finally got Scott to finish that Berger car! I first met Brett and saw the car at Scott's when I was doing the "Certified Stock" tear down in '01. An unfortunate situation with his (Brett's) dad dropped the car in his lap...nice to see it done!
